Chapter 129

P doesn't seem to be in a good mood today.

Oh, that's why. This roomie left a stink trail behind her.

Penelope: "Gross!"

Emily and Penelope decided to meet at the Foxbury commons.

Penelope: "I picked you this flower for Love Day. I know it's not much, but-"

Emily: "I love it!"

Emily: *Sniff*

Emily: "Thank you so much, babe!"

Penelope: "I'm so happy you liked it."

Penelope: "YAY! SHE LIKED IT! AND I COMPLETED A LOVE DAY TRADITION!"

Emily: "You're so cute."

Penelope: "Ugh, I'm starving."

Emily: "Let's go inside and eat, then!"

Penelope: "Let's get this food."

Penelope: "Can I please have one plate of spaghetti."

Chef: "Coming right up!"

Penelope: "You sure you don't want anything, babe?"

Emily: "I'll be fine, I had a big breakfast."

Emily: "And besides, if I do get hungry, we can just share your pasta like lady and the tramp."

Penelope: "Who's the tramp?"

Penelope: "This pasta is delicious!"

Emily: "Looks like you're really enjoying it."

Emily: "You couldn't have waited until we sat down to eat it?"

Penelope: "Nope, it smells too good."

Penelope: "I could eat this all day."

Emily: "You're enjoying that pasta a little too much. Looks like we won't be able to have our lady and the tramp moment with you eating that fast. Come on, it's supposed to be Love Day!"

Penelope: "Yay, Love Day! Please don't make me share my pasta."

Emily: "Is it bad that your pasta is making me very hungry?"

Emily: "I mean, you could share just a little bit, couldn't you?"

Penelope: "Uh..."

Emily: "I'm totally kidding, relax! You should have seen the look on your face!"

Penelope: "Don't joke about my pasta like that."

A lot of sims began to sit down and do their homework.

This is the homework hot spot, apparently.

Penelope: "Speaking of homework, I should make a start on mine."

Emily: "Ha! I'm glad I don't have to do any homework anymore! Doing homework on Love Day must suck."

Penelope: "Speaking of Love Day, enjoy some Love Day confetti! Yay!"

Emily: "You're the cutest ever."

Penelope: "I know, no one can top my Love Day celebrations."

Emily: *Blows horn*

Penelope: "Never mind, I stand corrected."

Emily: "Horns are better than confetti!"

Penelope: "But confetti is so beautiful! Just like you."

Emily: "Aww, thank you babe!"

Emily: "I need to get going, but I promise I'll be back for your graduation."
Penelope: "Alright, I'll see you then. I'm so excited!"

Penelope: "Isn't she the best?"

She really is.

After Emily left, Penelope decided to finish the rest of her homework."

There was a Foxbury spirit squad happening outside P's dorm. There was decorations, cup pong, juice-

Penelope: "Did someone say juice?"

Penelope: "Let's get the juice flowing."

Penelope: "Oh yeah."

Penelope: "And a little bit for myself."

Penelope: "Turn up!"

Who knew the word 'juice' would make P appear out of thin air?

Penelope: "Anywhere there's juice, I'm there."

And ham and cheese sandwiches.

Penelope: "True dat."

Penelope travelled down to the Britechester library again.

Time for her to complete her term papers. She also has to study for a final exam, but she has two days, so she can do that tomorrow.

She seems motivated.

Your presentation is looking good already, P!

Meanwhile, the librarian is chatting sims up online.

I hope you're not on Simstagram, P.

Penelope: "Who? Me? Never!"

Good, because you have two term papers to write.

Penelope: "Say what?"

Penelope: "Two term papers?!"

Penelope: "One is hard and time consuming enough!"

Don't blame me, blame the system.

*2000 years later*

Penelope: "Ugh, I only managed to finish one term paper. The librarian was playing some loud game the entire time."

Looks like you should get some rest and come back to the library tomorrow.

Penelope: "Stupid librarian. Stupid professors assigning two term papers. Stupid everything."

Stupid roomies too?

Penelope: "Is that even a question?"

Penelope: "Did this roomie really just put her butt in my face?"

Another day, another ham and cheese sandwich.

And another term paper to write.

Get your butt in the library.

Are you feeling better today, P?

Penelope: "Yep, my annoyance tolerance has recharged."

Penelope: "You again."

Librarian: "Wanna watch me play a bunch of games again for hours?"

Why is everyone crowded around P?

Penelope: "Because everyone loves me."

Penelope has finally finished and submitted her second term paper!

Now, time for her to study for her final final exam.

Penelope: "One step closer to graduating."

Penelope found a nice spot on the library balcony to study.

No townies could possibly find her up here.

Penelope: "I'm super confident right now. I know I'm gonna ace this final exam."

P is just beaming with confidence.

Penelope: "Thanks for the food, roomies. The only thing y'all are good for."

True dat.

There was another secret society meeting happening at the ruins.

Penelope: "Get ready to get weird."

Yep, this is already weird.

Penelope: "You think this is weird? It gets weirder."

Penelope: "Sparkles!"

Penelope: "Ugh, I knew the sprites wouldn't be impressed with me tonight!"

Penelope: "How do you guys impress these things?!"

Penelope: "Oh, and namaste."

Secret Society Member: "Namaste."

Penelope: "Now, tell me how to impress these things."

Secret Society Leader: "It's simple, just leave 100,000 simoleons on the podium, and they'll love you in no time."

Penelope: "Hey! You really think you can exploit me like that? I'm not as dumb as these stupid sprites."

Penelope: "Ah! I'm sorry! I didn't mean to call you guys stupid."

Penelope: "You're beyond stupid."

Penelope: "Alright, I'm sorry! Stop attacking me!"

Penelope: "Just leave me alone!"

Penelope: "I'm outta here."

Penelope: "No way they'll catch me on my bike."

Uh... looks like they're chasing you, P.

Penelope: "Stupid sprites."

They even bother P while she's sleeping!

It's exam time!

Are you nervous?

Penelope: "Nope, I've got this in the bag."

Thanks to the secret society meeting keeping P up late last night, she had to take her ham and cheese sandwich with her to class.

Penelope: "Hopefully this ham and cheese sandwich makes me smarter."

P has finished her final exam! How do you think you did?

Penelope: "I'm pretty confident that I did well!"

Back to the dorm for the final time. I'm gonna miss seeing P ride her bike back to the dorm.

Penelope: "Wow, I can't believe I'm graduating tomorrow!"

P decided to have a monte cristo sandwich while awaiting her final exam results.

Penelope: "Hello?"

Penelope: "Oh, hey babe!"

Penelope: "Yeah, I think I did pretty well on the exams. I can't wait to see you tomorrow."

Penelope's final university results are in! Despite studying, doing all her presentations and term papers, and doing her homework consistently, P was only able to get an A+ in 2 classes. The other 2 classes she received a B+. I'm not sure what more she could have done, so I'm confused how the system works here. Anyway, her final GPA is an A! It may not be an A+, but I'll take it.

Now, it's time to celebrate the only way the Parsons' know how.

Dancing!

Penelope: "Where's the juice at tho?"

Oh, and that too.

Roomie: "Nice dance moves."

Penelope: "Thanks! I'm naturally gifted."

It's P's final night here at Foxbury Institute. I'm gonna miss this place, she's made so many amazing memories here.

It's graduation day!

But, that won't break the ham and cheese tradition.

Penelope: "Gotta have a ham and cheese sandwich no matter what."

I'm so excited!

P is really about to graduate.

I think I'm gonna cry!

Penelope: "Stop being a wuss."

Oh, look at you in your little gown!

Penelope: "I look great, right?"

Student: "Can you believe we're graduating?"

Penelope: "I know, right?"

Penelope: "It's crazy!"

Student: "It's gone by so fast!"

Penelope: "It really has."

Everyone is very excited.

Who wouldn't be? Graduations are always exciting.

Penelope: "Wow, I can't believe I'm really about to graduate from here and begin my path to becoming a marine biologist."

Even though the roomies were annoying, part of P was gonna miss them.

They were crazy, but they always left food around for her. Respect.

Well, well, well, look who decided to show up.

Foxbury Mascot: "Don't worry, I'll scare him off!"

Foxbury Mascot: "KAPOW!"

Britechester Mascot: "Really?"

Don't get into a scuffle again, y'all.

You wouldn't want your true identity to be revealed.

Ladies and gentleman...

The 2020 graduates of Foxbury Institute!

Hooray!

Everyone: "WOOHOO!"

Everyone: "WE DID IT!"

Penelope: "Wow, we really did it!"

Emily: "Congratulations, baby! I'm so proud of you!"

Penelope: "Thanks, babe!"

*Kiss*

*2000 years later*

Penelope: "I can't believe this... we're really about to start our lives together."

Emily: "Yeah, we sure are. I wouldn't have it any other way."

Why are y'all still doing your homework? You know you just graduated, right?

Emily: "I got you a little graduation gift!"

Penelope: "You what?"

Penelope: "Babe! You didn't have to do that!"

Emily: "I wanted to!"

Emily: "Go ahead and open it up."

Penelope: "Oh my god!"

Penelope: "1000 simoleons?!"

Emily: "Yep, all for you."

Penelope: "You're so sweet babe, thank you so much!"

Emily: "You're so welcome, you deserve it."

Penelope: "Are you excited to come back to Sulani with me?"

Emily: "I seriously can't wait. Penelope, I... I love you."

Penelope: "I love you too, Emily."

Emily: "You do?"

Penelope: "Yes, more than anything!"

Penelope: "Aye, time to pack up and move back to Sulani!"

Don't forget your mini fridge.

Penelope: "Of course not."

Penelope: "Wow... I'm really gonna miss this place. But, it's time for me to move on to my next adventure."

What a wild ride it's been. P has learnt and grown so much while being here, and now she's ready to move on to her new life. Until next time, goodbye Foxbury Institute.
